Executive Profile
Privacy · AI Governance · Regulatory Risk · Geneva — operating globally
Privacy, AI governance, and regulatory risk —
framed through executive judgment.
I build governance functions that hold under regulatory pressure — and defend them when they don't.
"In the digital world, freedom is called privacy."
Personal guiding principle
Not a compliance profile. A governance record.
The distinction matters. Compliance follows rules. Governance shapes them — internally, and in front of the authorities who enforce them.
This profile reflects fifteen years of work at the intersection of law, technology, and executive accountability — across Deloitte's international advisory practice and two of Europe's most complex in-house mandates.
The work has spanned framework design, enforcement proceedings, data breach response, litigation strategy direction, and board-level advisory. Often simultaneously. Always under pressure.
Four domains
01
Privacy frameworks built from the ground up under GDPR, HIPAA, CCPA, PIPL, POPIA, and the Privacy Act — operationalised across 30+ countries on six continents, including clinical and healthcare data governance in regulated hospital and MedTech environments.
02
EU AI Act readiness, risk classification, accountability structures, and board-level oversight — translating regulatory complexity into defensible governance frameworks.
03
Supervisory authority liaison, enforcement proceedings, audit representation, and regulatory strategy — across EU, UK, US, and international jurisdictions.
04
Data breach response and crisis containment — structured to hold under simultaneous legal, operational, and reputational pressure.
Professional context
Eight years building an international privacy and compliance advisory practice at Deloitte Legal — including more than thirty GDPR implementation projects across technology, finance, healthcare, and retail sectors.
Followed by in-house executive mandates of increasing scale in the banking, airline, and cruise industry — where the privacy and AI governance function was built from the ground up, with a direct reporting line to the CEO and Executive Chairman. Scope includes ongoing clinical privacy advisory for Switzerland's largest private hospital network.
The focus has remained consistent: translating regulatory complexity into governance structures that hold under pressure.
